Post Op Diet Hell



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on 9/25 and this post op diet is killing me. I was so excited to get to stage 3 pureed foods, then come to find out that they want a week of bland foods first, Then advanced pureed.

I have no complications but they changed there rules in August. Ugh.

I can't stomach muscle milk anymore and Soup is getting old. I need meat.< /p>

Any ideas how to dress up ricotta and why is cottage cheese so salty? Anyway just needed to vent, as I am starting to lose my mind.

sugar free pudding mix, sugar free Jello, Torani sugar free syrups, flavored Protein Powder all dress up ricotta cheese in a sweet way. Pasta Sauce, seasoning packets (taco, chili, beef stew, etc) dress it up in a savory way.

Trader Joe has unsalted cottage cheese. Or put a bit of pepper in it to lessen the salt.

During the first 2 months postop, the days just dragggeeedddd.. by Thursday I started reading the page for the next week's diet that would start on Monday. I didn't jump ahead, but it all just seemed to take forever!

But, time passed, and by time I had enjoyed the regular diet for a week or two, it already seemed like ancient history.

Use this time to learn as much as you can about postop nutrition so you can go forward in health and skinny-ness.

Vitamins are a special topic that is underappreciated until a deficiency shows up. Sleeves and bypasses both need 'em.

9/25 was my same surgery date. I added canned chicken to cream Soups. Some other things I'm eating now:

tuna salad, egg salad, mashed avocado on liquid egg whites, vegetarian refried Beans, cream of wheat with skim milk and Protein power, sugar free Jello with protein powder, chicken salad (canned not just cooked), I've blended vegetable beef Soup, mashed sweet potato, cottage cheese, pureed baked eggplant with marinara.

That was the pre August plan with my Surgeon that I was looking forward too. Now it is just light yogurt, refried beans, ricotta cheese, and cottage cheese

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
